Why does this game hide everything when you need it most?

[Kif]

OK, so at the moment I'm ploughing through the stunt jumps, and they aren't hard at all. The hard part is spending up to about 30 minutes looking for a bloody motorbike. I swear it's like the game knows I need one then and there and just decides to hide them on some mystical invisible island I can't get too.

Am I the only one that suffers from this? I know some people have places they get motorbikes from, but I checked them all and nothing was there.

Yeah I found the lack of bikes while I was doing the jumps to be very annoying. Here is the location that I would get mine from and it was there every single time I went there.

On the first Island head out to the airport. You will find it parked next to the control tower next to the runways. The only downside to this spot is that you will get a 4 star wanted level when you venture out there. But with a little practice escaping with the bike became second nature to me.

I also noticed that the main drag on the second island (times square area) that I would occasionally spot bikes on that road. They weren't very common but more frequent than other areas.

lol you arent alone at all man. it seemed like there were ZERO bikes in the game when i was looking for one for a stunt jump. i'd grab the first one i'd see except for faggios.

It all depends on the car set. Like in all GTA games if you have a certain vehicle it will spawn a different set of vehicles. It does always seem it is hiding things from you. Like when you need a taxi there are none for 1,000 miles. You pretty much have to go to San Andreas when you need things.

Just use a cheat to spawn the bike or start making a pile of them in front of your safe house

Yes! I got a Faggio hoping it would spawn some other bikes, but all it spawned was more Faggios.

I think I'll try for that bike at the Airport in the morning. Kind of annoying since my last 4 jumps are in Alderney, but you can't have everything I suppose heh.
